Rev 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

NEVERMIND !!
I should have known better than to think so-called Christians knew God's Word instead of teachings of men. This subject matter is a big stumbling block to many non-believers because you help spread the lies.

It can be documented in God's Word. What do you think be blotted out of the book of life means?

2007-01-10 15:56:35 · update #3

I'm so disappointed in the so-called Christians on this forum.

1) Are you aware of the second death? Yes.

2) Don't you know hell is separation from God? In a certain sense, but not in an absolute sense.

3) Don't you know hell is not eternal torture? It's eternal torment.

4) Don't you know that hell will be done away with? Hell will be cast into the Lake of Fire, where their torment will last forever and ever.

5) Why not teach the truth of God's Word? Ditto.

Your interpretation of the above mentioned subjects is one of many possible interpretations.

No one can be absolutely sure of the precise meanings, as no ordinary human individual is capable of perfectly understanding and confirming the word of God.

I for one, would define eternal separation from God, as torture.

As for the second death, how can we imagine such a thing, when we have yet to experience the first death?

And since eternity is just that, no more and no less, it is virtually impossible for a mere mortal to definitively state how, when, or even if, hell will be done away with.

God's word alone is not nearly as definitive as you might choose to believe.

Your post just proved it.

Yo should read your passages in context. They are thrown into the Lake of fire which is the second death and they are tormented day and night for ever and ever. That is all in the same Bible. You just happened to leave out the verse about it being forever and ever.

Revelation 19:20 And the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet who performed the signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image; these two were thrown alive into the lake of fire which burns with brimstone.
Revelation 20:10 And the devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are also; and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.
Revelation 20:14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire.
Revelation 20:15 And if anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.

you failed to add the next verse:
Revelation 20:15 If anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.
Hell wil not be done away with, the White Throne Judgment are for non-believers.
Yes, Hell is the separation from God. I know that, Hell is eternal torture, Hell is everything God is not, hate, greed, selfishness, etc., therefore you will be tortured through that....

"And if your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; it is better for you to enter life crippled or lame, than having two hands or two feet, to be cast into the eternal fire," (Matt. 18:8).

Eternal fire is real. Jesus said it was. In fact, Jesus spoke a great deal about hell. It is what Jesus came here to save us from.

Following are a few verses that show the eternality of the hell and punishment. God uses different phrases to describe the same thing.

"And these will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power," (2 Thess. 1:9).
"Just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, since they in the same way as these indulged in gross immorality and went after strange flesh, are exhibited as an example, in undergoing the punishment of eternal fire" (Jude 7).
These men are those who are hidden reefs in your love feasts when they feast with you without fear, caring for themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn trees without fruit, doubly dead, uprooted; 13 wild waves of the sea, casting up their own shame like foam; wandering stars, for whom the black darkness has been reserved forever," (Jude12-13).

yes I know all that. Hell and death will be cast into the lake of fire and brimstone at the great white throne judgement, I think.

and every pastor/reverend/teacher of the word claims to teach the truth. as long as they are Spirit lead, they should be telling the Truth, right?

Well I have heard of Number two, and I have thought about that, but I think number two disproves number three, since seeing God's love and then being separated from it would be a true eternal torture. I am very interested though, do you have any specific verses?

Hell is eternal; it will not be done away with. It is separation from God. If it isn't eternal, then that would mean Satan himself will eventually return to heaven. Does this make any sense?
